House Levelling in Woolloomooloo
Heritage-Safe Foundation Repairs with Modern Precision
If you’re in Woolloomooloo and starting to notice cracked walls, sagging floors, or doors that no longer close properly—your home may be on the move. Many properties in the area are over a century old, built on basic footings that have shifted with time.
At
Sydney House Levelling, we specialise in structural repairs that respect the character of your home while restoring its strength and stability. Whether it’s a Victorian terrace or a low-rise strata unit, we’ll fix it quietly, cleanly, and permanently.
What Is House Levelling, and Why It Matters in Woolloomooloo
House levelling is the process of correcting and stabilising a building that has sunk, shifted, or become uneven. This usually involves lifting the home and reinforcing its footings to ensure long-term support.
In Woolloomooloo, foundation movement is often caused by:
- Ageing timber stumps and crumbling brick piers
- Coastal moisture seeping into subfloors
- Fill soils used in historic land reclamation
- Vibrations from nearby road or construction works
- Inadequate drainage under terraces and shared buildings
We use engineered techniques tailored for inner-city conditions, protecting your structure without compromising its heritage value.
Signs Your Woolloomooloo Property May Need Levelling
Foundation movement doesn’t always start with a bang. These small but telling signs usually come first:
- Cracks along walls, ceilings, or external brickwork
- Doors and windows that jam or stick
- Sloped or “springy” timber floors
- Gaps between walls and skirting boards
- Popping tiles or cracked grout
- Noticeable lean or sag in structural framing
Woolloomooloo’s unique soil conditions and ageing homes make these problems common—but completely treatable with the right approach.

House Relevelling Specialists
Old or damaged timber stumps can shift over time, causing floors to dip and frames to twist. We remove failing stumps and install strong, modern replacements—ensuring your home is safely supported and structurally sound for decades to come.
Re-Stumping
When foundations are no longer strong enough to support your home, underpinning adds the reinforcement needed to stabilise and secure your property. We use engineered solutions to extend your footing into stable soil and stop further movement.
Underpinning
For lighter structures or concrete slabs, resin injection is a fast, non-invasive way to stabilise sunken ground. This method lifts and strengthens foundations by injecting an expanding resin that fills gaps under the home—ideal for driveways, patios, and parts of the house affected by soft or shifting soil.

Foundation Repair Services
We inspect, repair, and upgrade the beams, bearers, and joists under your home to make sure everything’s structurally sound. If you’ve noticed bouncy or noisy floors, it might be time to look beneath the surface.
Sub-Floor Works
Ventilation
Moisture trapped under your home can lead to mould, timber decay, and structural problems. We install smart sub-floor ventilation systems that keep air moving and dampness out—helping protect your investment.
